Makes you wonder why she wasn't as popular as her other two siblings. I have to finish Jane Eyre and then I will read Tenant. I'm not really planning anything for the last month of 2012, but I am thinking about 2013 and how free I feel to not be doing review books. I have committed to only 12 for the year and already have 2 of those slots taken!!Stacihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07600979915661464945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-11162822705055095442012-11-29T19:00:10.610-05:002012-11-29T19:00:10.610-05:00My gosh, your dessert selections rival those at my...My gosh, your dessert selections rival those at my mom's!
